lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I very much welcome this initiative. Unemployment is the biggest social problem we face right now, and anything we can do to mitigate its impact is important for the well-being of our societies. However, a proposal for EUR 100 million over a three-year period lacks ambition, in my view, given the growth in unemployment. I am likewise surprised that the money proposed is not new money, and that we will in effect be robbing Peter to pay Paul, as has already been said, at a time when all the money we can find should be used in the Progress programme, on existing schemes. We must do all we can to reach agreement quickly with the Spanish Presidency so that the programme can get under way at the earliest possible date. It is equally incumbent on the Council to get its act together and to meet Parliament with regard to our concerns. This is no time for the Council to haggle over what is a tiny amount of money."@en1
